Obama Camp Posts New Ad In Ohio Blaming Job Loses On John McCain

  This one will go over real well to the people in Ohio who are on the verge of losing their jobs because a  DHL owned company in Wilmington is about to close, leaving as many as 8,000 people unemployed.

  Part of the radio ad says:

"But there's something John McCain's not telling you: It was McCain who used his influence in the Senate to help foreign-owned DHL buy a U.S. company and gain control over the jobs that are now on the chopping block in Ohio," the announcer says.
"And that's not all: McCain's campaign manager was the top lobbyist for the DHL deal...helped push it through. His firm was paid $185,000 to lobby McCain and other Senators."

  I tried to provide the audio, but the audio is not available at this time. I'll update later. Either way, this ad could do some real damage to the Straight Talk Express after it is heard by enough of those living in Ohio.

  I must say that it is about time that the Obama camp knocks the crap out of the McCain clan!

   Of course, McCain now wants the Justice Department to investigate DHL's plan to use another carrier ( UPS ) to haul its packages. UPS is a rival in the industry.

John Kerry On Bush's Lean Towards Obama's Ideas

  John Kerry was on Meet The Press this past Sunday and had a response to host Tom Brokaw on whether Barack Obama was playing the race card after one of those lousy John McCain ads appeared questioning Obama's ability to lead the country. Kerry truthfully said that the GOP was making an attempt to scare the public into voting for McCain.

MR. BROKAW: I mean, when he, when he was talking about a dollar bill or a five dollar bill, he wasn't talking about whether he was not wearing a wig and wooden teeth.

SEN. KERRY: No, he was talking--what he was talking about is this campaign to scare about the person, and that's what they do. They try to scare about the person. They try to attack the character. They can't win on health care. They can't win on the economy. Eighty-five percent of the people in the nation know the country's moving in the wrong direction. They can't win--in fact, and I want to take Joe on on this, he just said the question is, is he ready to lead? Barack Obama has proven that he has the right judgment. What people are electing here is a president who has the judgment to do what's right for America. Barack Obama is right about Iraq. Now George Bush, Prime Minister Maliki think we ought to set a deadline. He was right about Afghanistan. John McCain has been the slowest person to come to the question of Afghanistan and adding more troops. He was right about Pakistan, that we ought to have the ability to go in and take out a terrorist. And John McCain criticized him for taking that position. He's been right about North Korea and Iran and the notion that we ought to negotiate. Now the Bush administration is negotiating. The Bush administration has moved towards Barack Obama, not John McCain. And John McCain's judgment has been wrong, and it's dangerous for America.

  Funny how a man who is not ready to lead this country has all of the Republican leaders in the White House now using his ideas. Except for McCain, who is to old to see past the past.
